Status of the SRF Gun Operation at ELBE

The superconducting RF photo-injector (SRF gun) at FZD is the first operating electron injector of its kind. The gun with a 3½-cell cavity and a frequency of 1.3 GHz produces an electron beam of 3 MeV with a maximum bunch charge of about 400 pC. Also the design values for the acceleration gradient c...

Sumario:The superconducting RF photo-injector (SRF gun) at FZD is the first operating electron injector of its kind. The gun with a 3½-cell cavity and a frequency of 1.3 GHz produces an electron beam of 3 MeV with a maximum bunch charge of about 400 pC. Also the design values for the acceleration gradient could not be reached with the cavity which is in use at present, the SRF gun will improve the beam quality for ELBE users. In the winter shutdown of 2009/10 the beam line was installed which connects the SRF gun with the ELBE accelerator. The paper reports on the first tests and on the progress in applying the SRF gun for ELBE operation.
